1 Day Uganda Gorilla Trek
1 Day Uganda Gorilla Tour
The 1 Day Uganda gorilla trek starting and ending in Kigali Bwindi offers you the chance to visit gorillas in Bwindi Impenetrable in the shortest time possible. Gorilla trekking is undoubtedly the major tour activity in Uganda and East Africa, attracting millions of travelers every year. Uganda is fortunate to be home to the largest population of mountain Gorillas in its high mountains, specifically in Bwindi and Mgahinga National Parks. An encounter with these giant apes in their natural habitat is made easy with our 1-day Gorilla Trek encounter in Bwindi. The Gorillas have been habituated and are used to the presence of humans without changing their natural behavior.
